What portable amp do you own?? What headphones? What kind of music?

customised (and still under modding) jds cMoyBB with rolling amps - happy this, don't wan't to change one.
Cans - ATH-ES700 (main ones)
 
Music- very broad, but mostly electronic, from classics like Jarre or Kraftwerk to dnb and dubstep. Lot of good rock as wel (tool, Deftones, some clasics)

Do you have an LOD?

Are you happy to stay with Apple or considering another direction?

What is your budget?

How much memory are you aiming for?

I don't have dock if that's what you were asking, I prefer line-out from headphone if connecting to amplifier.
 
I had apple just because I bought it cheap (was broken), I don't like apple players (although I'm typing this on macbook )
 
Budget - €100-€150 max.
 
Memory wise - min 32gb in unexpandable, doesn't matter at all if there is sd card slot.
 
I was thinking about Sansa Fuze?

Over the bufget, to get it to EU the customs would kill it even more. And I don't need video player 
 
Thanks
 
EDIT: Would Sansa Fuze would pair nice with my set?

I use my old Sony X1060 with an LOD for a line out to my BH. I'd have sold it long ago if it didn't have that capability as the amp section is too grainy for my liking. The DAC in it seems pretty decent though and works well with the LOD/BH, at least certainly better than my Galaxy 4.2 players headphone out.
